General & Family Physician,  's  Response
I would suggest you to go to ER immediately as an itchy skin rash, swollen lips can be a very serious reaction especially if it is not responding to Benadryl.
You will need injectable medicines along with monitoring to deal with any complications should they arise.
Get well soon. Thank you.
